Chapter 77: Rell’s Involvement
Rell looked around at the group staring at him, their eyes filled with curiosity and suspicion. With a sigh, he responded to the question Joe asked.
Rell: “I used to work with Sorin on certain projects.”
Alan glared at Rell with an intensity that could have given the dead chills. His eyes burned with a fierce, unrelenting disdain. From the moment they first met, Alan had never really liked Rell; there was something about him that always felt off. Now, hearing that Rell had worked with Sorin, Alan felt utterly justified in his mistrust.
His mind raced with memories of Sorin and all the heinous acts he had committed. The images and emotions from those times flooded back with intensity. As these memories consumed him, he began subconsciously attributing some of Sorin's foul deeds to Rell.
Joe: “And you didn’t think to tell us about this?”
Rell: “You had no proper group meeting like we were supposed to. Otherwise, I would have mentioned this there."
Joe: “This is kinda important. You should have pushed to mention this to me without needing to have a meeting.”
Rell: “I wouldn’t say it was that important.”
Joe: “Isn't it? We are looking for people who are helping Sorin turn students into undead. You, who worked with Sorin, would be a possible suspect in this investigation.”
